Wow that's a bum deal. My doctor explains the results when I go in for my yearly checkup. I get the bloodwork done the week prior to the checkup. CBCs, nutrition panel, and full thyroid panel with the free T-3 or 4 or whatever it is, because I only have half of a functioning thyroid and have to monitor it. The yearly checkup has a $0 copay, it's a service covered 100% by my insurance.
